About Antoinette Seymour
With more than 35 years of industry experience, Jo Seymour is the Founding Partner of the team and the visionary behind its disciplined, planning-first philosophy. Over the decades, she has built a multigenerational wealth management practice grounded in integrity, education, and long-term client relationships.
Jo focuses on comprehensive wealth management, helping individuals, families, and business owners identify risks that may hinder their ability to achieve meaningful life and financial goals. Her holistic approach integrates retirement planning, estate planning strategies, education funding, risk management, and investment oversight into a cohesive, goals-based framework. Through a structured and educational process, she helps clients clearly define what is possible and implement strategies designed to help bring those goals to life.
Her career in financial services began with the encouragement of a lifelong friend in the industry. Drawn to the fast-paced and impactful nature of the profession, Jo worked her way through operations, service, and management roles before making the pivotal decision to focus directly on client advisory work and pursue her CFP® certification. As a founding member of the practice more than 20 years ago, she built what is now a thriving, team-based wealth management practice designed to serve clients across generations.
A lifelong advocate for education and professional excellence, Jo is a graduate of Malone University and has completed advanced studies through The American College of Financial Services. She holds the Certified Financial Planner™® (CFP®) and Chartered Financial Consultant® (ChFC®) designations — two of the industry’s most respected credentials. Throughout her career, she has received numerous honors, including membership in Morgan Stanley’s Century Club(2018, 2023 & 2026).
An Ohio native, Jo believes that balance is essential to a fulfilling life. She and her husband, Dan, who just celebrated their 45th wedding anniversary, reside in Massillon. Their daughter, Brandi, and son-in-law, Aaron, serve alongside her on the team, creating a truly family-centered wealth management practice. Outside the office, Jo remains active in her community as a past president and board member of several local organizations. She enjoys traveling, camping, spending time at the beach, and the occasional motorcycle ride with family.
